summary

Episode notes

The hosts announce a historical one-week 2022 submission window at [email protected]. Their official league includes one team per host, a private Slack, and yearlong banter with listeners. They reject trophy cases, claims of fantasy greatness, and 17-paragraph resumes; instead entrants should impress them, make them laugh or feel something, keep it concise, have fun, and show they will be fun to play with. Brooks is the proof: the hosts met him through a Listener League video entry that impressed them and remained a favorite. They also state that they never waive the deadline. Outside the announcement, Jason wrecks his voice by going full Jack Black at a live show, the hosts preview a hostile Mock Draft Mayhem format, propose an anti-disease political platform, and compare keeper-league tanking with the League of Record's need for a fireable co-manager scapegoat.
